LEXINGTON, Ky. (AP): An Indiana man has been sentenced to 10 years in prison in connection with the deaths of two people who tried to help other motorists after a series of collisions in Kentucky last year.
57-year-old Bryan Mangan of South Bend, Indiana, pleaded guilty in December to two counts of wanton endangerment, evidence tampering and driving under the influence.
Police said a wreck involving Mangan's SUV triggered the deadly collision on Interstate 75 in Madison County.
The people who died were 22-year-old Meredith L. Buscher of Richmond, Kentucky, and 30-year-old Jeffrey R. Campbell of Louisville.
Kentucky State Police said Buscher and Campbell left their cars to help others involved in collisions when they were struck by a vehicle driven by a northern Kentucky man. No charges were filed against the driver.
